This isn't a horse that pushes a big gear, like Curlin, and would thus have a problem 'powering' his way on the grass. This is a one run animal that is very athletic. With a PATIENT jock that makes a TIMELY run, he'd be very, very good. Imagine him at AP, for example, with all those late collapsing races.


In fact, this horse is being wasted on dirt. He should be running on turf and turflike POLY.
Let's get a campaign going to bring him back to Woodbine!
